How To Track Traces of the Comet in the Mountains in Fortnite

Author : Violet Mar 19,2025

Fortnite's latest Story Quests delve into the mystery of a comet, tasking players with an investigation. While many challenges are straightforward, like dealing damage at various POIs, one presents a unique hurdle: tracking comet traces in the mountains. This guide provides a streamlined approach to completing this challenge efficiently.

Map locations for traces of the comet in Fortnite.

The third stage of The Spirit Realm Quests requires locating comet traces within a mountainous region southwest of the map. While seven potential locations exist, only three interactions are needed for completion. Prioritize efficiency by targeting a cluster of traces to minimize travel time.

The optimal strategy involves heading to the mountain south of Warrior's Watch. This mountain boasts two easily accessible traces directly behind the POI, with a third located on a nearby peak. However, the popularity of these quests means other players will likely be vying for the same locations. Therefore, it’s advisable to land at Warrior's Watch initially, loot, and then proceed to the mountain once adequately prepared. The comet traces aren't going anywhere.

Locating the traces requires close proximity, as their white glow and magnifying glass icon only appear upon approach. Utilize your map to mark your target, preventing disorientation and unexpected encounters.

Completing the three trace interactions unlocks the fourth stage, requiring a conversation with Kendo about Daigo and the portal. Here’s the complete questline for reference:

  • Place Spirit Charms to investigate the mysterious crater
  • Hit opponents at different named locations to hone in on the comet’s location
  • Track traces of the comet in the mountains
  • Speak to Kendo about Daigo and the portal
  • Damage Shogun X to make his essence appear and collect it
  • Give Hope Shogun X’s essence to learn about the comet’s true nature

And that's how to efficiently track traces of the comet in the mountains in *Fortnite*.

Fortnite is available on various platforms, including the Meta Quest 2 and 3.
